You take all the fun out of watching open court. Watching some know-it-all pot head get chewed out for showing such disrespect is the best part.
It is also important go to in to court prepared and knowing what must be done. Being dressed and not knowing what you are in court for and how to conduct the business of the day can be worse than wearing an F-the-Po-po shirt.
I sat through a court session not long ago where two
pro per defendants blathered for the first few moments and the judge shut each of them down. On the second one he groused to the assembled courtroom that "This is an example of what happens when you try to defend yourself," and then got so ticked when the defendant rambled on some more that he had to call a recess for 20 minutes to get a breather.
Both defendants were given a continuance in order to find legal counsel or come in actually prepared.
Some days you just want to bring popcorn!
